Steve is a real sucker for high-end leather goods. Especially handmade in the USA leather goods. Especially re-workings of vintage pieces that have kept the essence of the original while making them more functional for modern life.

So this is really just an incredible piece.

From BillyKirk's website:

"Our hand-stitched shoulder satchel is modeled after a WWII Belgium Map Case we had. It was just too small for our use so we re-designed it and made ours larger. There is nothing else on the market like this. Each one takes a few hours to complete. One solid pieces of cow hide is stitched with heavy wax cording to form the satchel. We had all the hardware cast in white bronze. Comes with all leather adjustable strap with shoulder piece, dull silver rings and collar buttons. Hand-stitched detailing throughout. Oiled and edged. 9 3/4" X 11." Made in the USA."

Absolutely beautiful. (via Josh Spear)
